摘要:
An ABS/ESC activated brake light device includes a first connector, a second connector, an antilock brake system and/or electronic stability control (ABS/ESC) signal detection circuit connected to the first connector, a control circuit connected to the ABS/ESC signal detection circuit, a brake light signal generation circuit connected to the control circuit and the second connector, and a power supply. The first connector is configured to plug into an antilock brake system pump motor circuit on a fuse panel of a vehicle. The second connector is configured to plug into a brake light circuit on the fuse panel of the vehicle. The control circuit sends one or more control signals to the brake light generation circuit whenever an ABS/ESC signal is detected. The brake light signal generation circuit causes the brake lights of the vehicle to flash whenever the one or more control signals are received from the control circuit.

An automotive brake light system producing a graduated display according to the level of vehicle deceleration as sensed by an onboard piezoelectric accelerometer. Taillight assemblies are divided into segments which are illuminated in sequence to produce a graduated display. The vehicle anti-lock brake system may be connected into the system to provide a special lighting effect such as blinking the taillights during a panic stop condition.

A deceleration warning device for reducing rear-end collisions in road traffic includes a sensor for detecting a longitudinal acceleration value, a control device receiving the longitudinal acceleration value, determining an acceleration limit value, and generating a warning signal if the longitudinal acceleration value exceeds the acceleration limit value, and a rear lighting display for displaying an alarm state when the control device emits a warning signal. Determination of the acceleration limit value is based upon a plurality of signals including an anti-lock braking system (ABS) signal and a brake pedal position signal. The control device is operable in one of three levels depending upon a detected quality of the signals.

A speed reduction warning system that senses vehicle deceleration rate and upon reaching preset limits flashes an illumination device at different rates signaling the operator following the vehicle to the rate of deceleration. The system generally includes a processing unit, an input to the processor that senses deceleration or acceleration rate from the odometer of the vehicle, and an output illumination device. The illumination device includes an indicator that flashes at varying rates controlled by the processor. The processor includes storage having a plurality of ranges stored that are the deceleration rates that the system responds to. In application, with the vehicle in motion, the deceleration or acceleration rate of the vehicle is detected by the input device and supplied to the processor. A value is calculated by the processor representing whether the vehicle is decelerating and if so, the rate of deceleration. If the value is within one of the ranges in storage, the processor sends a corresponding output signal to the illumination device. Once the vehicle is stopped or begins to accelerate the output signal is extinguished by the processor, automatically. The system can further include means such that the indicator of the illumination device activates a selected illumination when the vehicle's anti-lock brake system is applied, or a steady illumination when the vehicle's speed is below 5 mph.

A turn signal control apparatus includes a switch, a flashing cycle control device, an operation device, a sharp deceleration-detection device, a bypass device, and a flashing cycle modification device. The flashing cycle control device is to determine a flashing cycle. The operation device is to open and close the switch according to the flashing cycle determined by the flashing cycle control device so that a turn signal lamp flashes. The flashing cycle modification device is to modify the flashing cycle determined by the flashing cycle control device to produce a modified flashing cycle according to a sharp deceleration-detection signal. The flashing cycle modification device and the bypass device are configured to operate to electrically connect an upstream side of the operation device and a downstream side of the operation device according to the modified flashing cycle in a case where the sharp deceleration-detection signal is outputted.

A vehicle includes a main lighting control sensor, a body, a housing, an outer lens, and main and expressive lighting assemblies. The sensor generates an output signal in response to a detected vehicle condition such as braking or headlight activation. The lens defines a cavity in conjunction with the housing. The main lighting assembly is positioned within the cavity, and illuminates in response to the output signal. An expressive lighting assembly positioned within the cavity includes clear transparent plates arranged in a stack, with LEDs arranged in multiple rows and columns on a major surface of each plate. Wire arrays connect the LEDs to a control board. The control board receives an activation signal from a device, e.g., a fob, and individually addresses the LEDs to command illumination of the LEDs according to a calibrated LED illumination sequence. A controller may be used for downloading sequences as applications.
